USC Policy

I think that the smoking policy at USC should be changed. I'm not one of those people who think that just because I don't do something, no one else should do it, but everytime I walk into a cloud of smoke, I get a huge headache that lasts for an hour. Sure, one headache, I can live with that, right? Every class I leave, there is always someone walking in front of me with a cigarette. The current policy is that you must be 25 feet from a building (which it seems like no one every is anyways) before you start smoking, but I think it should be banned from campus. A little harshe, I know.

The existing policy is that 25 feet of space is given from a campus building to be smoke free. The motivation for this policy is that people can still smoke, but others in classrooms will not be affected by it. 25 feet should leave plenty of space for people to walk through without being surrounded by smoke. The authorities haven't exactly introduced my policy, but I think that either the campus or the city of Columbia is considering the ban of smoke.
